< 詩篇 8 >
1 大衛的詩,交與伶長。用迦特樂器。 耶和華-我們的主啊, 你的名在全地何其美! 你將你的榮耀彰顯於天。
Yahweh, our Lord, people all over the world know that you [MTY] are very great! Your glory reaches up higher than the heavens!
2 你因敵人的緣故, 從嬰孩和吃奶的口中, 建立了能力, 使仇敵和報仇的閉口無言。
You have taught little children and infants to praise you; they cause your enemies and those who try to (get revenge on/get rid of) you to be silent.
3 我觀看你指頭所造的天, 並你所陳設的月亮星宿,
When I look up at the sky [at night], and see the things that you have made— the moon and the stars that you have set in place—
4 便說:人算甚麼,你竟顧念他! 世人算甚麼,你竟眷顧他!
it is amazing [to me] that [RHQ] you think about people, that you are concerned about [us] humans!
5 你叫他比天使微小一點, 並賜他榮耀尊貴為冠冕。
You made the angels in heaven to be only a little more important than we are; you caused us to be like kings [MET] and you gave us splendor and honor [DOU]!
6 你派他管理你手所造的, 使萬物,就是一切的牛羊、 田野的獸、空中的鳥、海裏的魚, 凡經行海道的,都服在他的腳下。
You put us in charge of everything that you made; you gave us authority over all things—
the sheep and the cattle, and even the wild animals,
the birds, the fish, and everything [else] that swims in the seas.
Yahweh, our Lord, people all over the world know that you [MTY] are very great!
